Here is a brief video I put together about an instinctive shooting drill for beginners. Don't mind the humor, I use humor to keep it light and interesting when I do training. I'd be interested in hearing everyone's thoughts. The videos are a new venture for me, so its a work in progress.

Beginning was kind of funny. The only thing I'd change is your trigger finger should be outside of the trigger guard until you're on target. I noticed you were keeping it in the guard even when brought back down. Also, I would mention that your eyes should snap to the target, bring the gun into your sight picture, change focus to front sight and fire. Eyes then snap to next target and repeat.

Good tips, FALacy, thanks. I'll impliment that in future videos. I didn't discuss aiming and sight picture in that video because these are exercises I do when working on instinctive shooting, without aiming down the sights, for self defense tactics. I guess I should have made that more clear in the video.
